• Polarization — Po lar*i*za tion, n. [Cf. F. polarisation.] [1913 Webster] 1. The act of polarizing; the state of being polarized, or of having polarity. [1913 Webster] 2. (Opt.) A peculiar affection or condition of the rays of light or heat, in consequence of… …   The Collaborative International Dictionary of English

• Polarization spectroscopy — comprises a set of spectroscopic techniques based on polarization properties of light (not necessarily visible one; UV, X ray, infrared, or in any other frequency range of the electromagnetic radiation). By analyzing the polarization properties… …   Wikipedia

• Ray tracing (physics) — In physics, ray tracing is a method for calculating the path of waves or particles through a system with regions of varying propagation velocity, absorption characteristics, and reflecting surfaces. Under these circumstances, wavefronts may bend …   Wikipedia

• polarization — 1. In electricity, coating of an electrode with a thick layer of hydrogen bubbles, with the result that the flow of current is weakened or arrested. 2. A change effected in a ray of light passing through certain media, whereby the transverse… …   Medical dictionary

• X-ray crystallography — can locate every atom in a zeolite, an aluminosilicate with many important applications, such as water purification. X ray crystallography is a method of determining the arrangement of atoms within a crystal, in which a beam of X rays strikes a… …   Wikipedia

• X-ray Raman scattering — (XRS) is non resonant inelastic scattering of x rays from core electrons. It is analogous to Raman scattering, which is a largely used tool in optical spectroscopy, with the difference being that the wavelengths of theexciting photons fall in the …   Wikipedia

• Plane of polarization — Plane Plane, n. [F. plane, L. plana. See {Plane}, v. & a.] 1. (Geom.) A surface, real or imaginary, in which, if any two points are taken, the straight line which joins them lies wholly in that surface; or a surface, any section of which by a… …   The Collaborative International Dictionary of English

• Orthogonal polarization spectral imaging — is a method for imaging small blood vessels[1] in tissue like the nail bed or lip. It uses a light source of linearly polarized light with a wavelength of 550 nanometers, the isobestic point for hemoglobin, thus imaging the erythrocytes as they… …   Wikipedia
